This can lead to bloody mucus in nose areas when the blood resulting from this minimal trauma is mixed in with regular clear mucus. And, when blood dries, mucus color can change again, becoming tinged with shades of brown or dark red when dislodged from the nasal area. Therefore brown mucus from nose areas is not uncommon during times of illness or other nose maladies.
Soil Compaction Tests. There are many types of Soil compaction tests which are performed on soil. One of the most common test to determine the field density of soil is the sand-cone method. Maximum density is found by plotting a densityâmoisture curve.
SOIL COMPACTION HANDBOOK 5 Cohesive soils Cohesive soils have the smallest particles. Clay has a particle size range of .00004 to .002. Silt ranges from .0002 to .003. Clay is used in embankment fills and retaining pond beds. Characteristics Cohesive soils are dense and tightly bound together by molecular attraction.
